Using New Knowedge for a New Task

After reviewing character traits in nonfiction texts, as well as reviewing character traits and how they apply to him or herself, the students will use their new knowledge of character traits that good leaders have in fictional texts.  Here is an example of a character trait graphic organizer that can be used for fictional texts:

The students would select a character, and using what they know about character traits and evidence from the text, select the trait a specific character has and how they know that character demonstrates that trait.  This task may involve reviewing different traits before reading the text, but students should be able to use what they learned to complete this organizer.
